Summary

With the Cards limping into the field, breaking a six-year drought, every NFC team has participated in the Super Bowl tournament at least once since 2016 – when the New York Giants and Detroit Lions last qualified. But you won't see either on the league's first Monday night wild-card broadcast, a rubber match forum as the Cardinals visit the Los Angeles Rams for the NFC West rivals' third meeting of the season.4. But what an amazing regular-season finale Sunday to wrap up the league's first 17-game regular season. But that all paled to game No. 272, the Raiders beating the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night with a field goal on the final play of overtime – after the Bolts called a widely parsed timeout that might have nixed the tie which would have permitted both teams to pass beyond the playoff velvet rope. He put in just enough work Sunday – six grabs for 55 yards – to establish a new team record for receiving yards (1,553) yards in a season, topping Jordy Nelson's former mark by 34 yards.12. Obligatory Brady update: The 44-year-old Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback joined Drew Brees as the only players with multiple 5,000-yard passing seasons, and TB12 also surpassed Peyton Manning as the oldest player to pace the league in passing yards (career-best 5,316) and TD throws (43). Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase finished the regular season with 1,455 receiving yards, a new single-season Cincinnati record that also extended Chase's rookie record in that department during the Super Bowl era (since 1966). How about this as a potential epitaph to Pittsburgh QB Ben Roethlisberger's career: In 18 NFL seasons, he's never finished below .500, a league record for a player.24.
